Vista Word Document

[thebullettrain]

I have a Microsoft Vista document, but whenver I send it to my friend who has XP, it doesn't allow him to open it. Is there any way I can save this document so that he can open it. Saying tht I am going to work in the morning, but I too will have the same problem as my work pc is not a Vista machine.

Use the "save as function" and save the doc in a previous format

Install on the Office 2003 machine and it will be able to read Office 2007 files.

vista is an OS, I think you wrote it in word, you can save as compatible files for earlier versions of office
